One wildebeast plus one wildebeast makes two wildebeast, a couple wildebeast
A couple wildebeast have one baby, it's a three wildebeast family
If fifty wildebeast couples have one baby each you have one hundred fifty
wildebeasts. That's a herd.
One orca whale plus one orca whale makes two orca whales, a couple orca whales
A couple orca whales have one baby it's a three orca whale family
If four orca couples have one baby each you have twelve orca whales out in the sea
That's a pod.
One amoeba plus one amoeba makes two amoebas a couple amoebas
When one amoeba divides in two, it's a three amoebean family
When these three amoebas divide in two you have a six amoebean family
In the pond.
Every family needs a place to raise their young , year by year so
generations can be counted, and not add up to zero
One snow goose plus one snow goose makes two snow geese, a couple snow geese
A couple snow geese have eight babies it's a ten snow geese family
If ten snow geese couples have eight babies each you have one hundred snow geese
migrating. That's a flock.
One honey bee plus one honey bee makes two honey bees a couple honey bees
Add one queen bee for company, it's a three honey bee family
If one single queen bee lays one thousand eggs you have one thousand three honey
bees. That's a hive.
One salmon plus one salmon makes two salmon, a couple salmon
A couple salmon have fifty babies it's a fifty two salmon family
If six salmon couples have fifty babies each you have three hundred and twelve
salmon . That's a school.
Every family needs a place to raise their young, year by year, so
Generations can be counted, and not add up to zero
One family plus one family makes two families a couple families
And all families add up to one animal kingdom
